Negotiation not caring about language sequence in request
Summary: Negotiation not caring about language sequence in
request
Product: Apache httpd-2.0
Version: 2.0.43
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Other
Status: NEW
Severity: Major
Priority: Other
Component: mod_negotiation
AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
ReportedBy: apache@jth.net
Apparently content negotiation no longer cares about the sequence in which the browser (e.g.
Opera 6.05) presents the languages. The priority should be first mentioned, first served.
Opera
does not assign a q-value to each language, so they will have equal values, but it is wrong
to treat
them as equally good and pick any of them. This will give different languages from different
directories depending on how the files are found.
This worked very well in 1.3.x for files like
index.var mentioning index.da.html and index.en.html. Now its totally broken. Even explicitly
calling index.var will not give the wanted primary language.
# DefaultLanguage
da
AddLanguage da .da
AddLanguage en .en
ForceLanguagePriority and
LanguagePriority have no consistent influence.
